Irons boss David Moyes has been on the look out for a new striker since the beginning of this year, even confirming that bids had been made in January.

As well as this, the Scotsman candidly admitted that he was 'desperate' to sign a forward in the summer - but West Ham failed to make a transfer happen in time.

The Hammers are arguably short of options in that area given their over-reliance on Michail Antonio, but some encouraging news has emerged on their hunt.

Indeed, as per 90min, West Ham are now a 'potential destination' for Gunners forward Lacazette - with it also looking likely he will leave the Emirates Stadium.

What's more, despite interest from abroad, the 30-year-old is open to remaining in London as GSB and co eye a move.

Flocking to this claim, some Irons supporters have erupted with a wide array of takes - find all of their best ones from Twitter down below.
